To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 1297.17 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 1297.17, so we can write it down as 100%=1297.17.
4. We know, that x% equals 673.09 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=673.09.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1297.17
2) x%=673.09
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=1297.17/673.09
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 673.09 is what percent of 1297.17

100%/x%=1297.17/673.09
(100/x)*x=(1297.17/673.09)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.9271865575183*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.9271865575183) to get x
100/1.9271865575183=x
51.889112452493=x
x=51.889112452493

now we have:
